Chapter 285
Ah, it turns out to be a system item.
Ling Suisui didn't arrive early, so she didn't see the content of the audition. Her first impression of Jiaxing was only that look.
Yan Siling was thinking about what topic to ask, and she took out her cell phone to search for the name "Yu Jiaxing".
He is indeed very obscure, and no one updates his entry on the encyclopedia. We can only find out which dramas he has filmed through the official announcement of the crew.
Yu Jiaxing only settled the lawsuit with his former company last year and only started acting after October. Although the roles he played were not large, they were all supporting roles in high-quality dramas. That was why he had the opportunity to be noticed by his predecessors and recommended to her through Tang Bing.
In the past six months, Yu Jiaxing has filmed three dramas in one go, each with a good cast, and also recorded a reality show on acting competition.
No one will pay attention to the resources of a little unknown person, but this is obviously not the treatment that ordinary actors can get when they first enter the circle. Based on his previous popularity, he couldn't be considered an idol changing careers, and there was no difference between him and an ordinary person.
Ling Suisui glanced at the acting competition program he participated in, which was Aoqi’s self-produced variety show "The Growth of Actors".
How to say it... Just by watching the trailer, you can tell that this show is a stitching and imitation of "She's the One" and "Hero, Please Take This" from the inside out. But it goes without saying that Ochi doesn't dare to really let the star contestants suffer, nor can he copy the talent show system. He can only play the popularity vote to trick the audience into coming in first.
Although Ling Suisui felt that their plagiarism was very low-level, people inside Aoqi were very confident about this variety show. The first episode of "The Growth of an Actor" will be aired tomorrow, and the content about "Yu Jiaxing" is mainly for program promotion.
However, this program is still being recorded and the next episode will be broadcast in two days. Yu Jiaxing came to audition at this time. Did he get eliminated?
For an actor recommended by Tang Bing and others, it should be easy to crush a group of traffic stars.
Ling Sui thought of the "cannon fodder counterattack system" in him, and seemed to understand something.
By this time Yan Siling had also thought of the topic. At Ling Sui's suggestion, she did not select a scene from the script, but instead gave a scenario she had come up with on the spur of the moment - Bai Wei was treating, and Bai Fei and she were having dinner at a high-end restaurant.
For this kind of improvisational performance, the lines need to be thought of on the spot, there are no real props, and the co-actor is still Ling Suisui. If the difficulty of the audition is also divided into levels, this is already close to the top of the pyramid.
She walked to the middle, and Yu Jiaxing bowed slightly and shook hands with her: "Hello, Teacher Ling."
"Hello." Ling Suisui returned the greeting.
She did not miss the inquiry and scrutiny in his eyes. At least his real attitude was far less respectful and polite than he seemed on the surface.
But it doesn’t matter. Ling Suisui won’t ask everyone to like her. In the entertainment industry, people judge by actions rather than intentions.
There was a table and two chairs in the room, and Ling Suisui and Yu Jiaxing sat facing each other.
Both of them adjusted their states and entered the role almost instantly. Ling Suisui picked up the chopsticks first to pick up the food, and she conveyed the message that this was Chinese food.
To be fair, Yu Jiaxing performed very well. He was not used to such an environment, but he tried hard to save face and pretend to be relaxed. At the same time, he had some complaints about Bai Wei who invited him to dinner, suspecting that she was deliberately embarrassing him.
Yan Siling was paying attention to Yu Jiaxing's expression, while Ling Suisui's attention was actually on his hands.
Emotions can be expressed with talent, but performing without props is the most challenging of skills. Without repeated practice, even the most common things in daily life will become difficult to do when you lose your props.
Yu Jiaxing's performance was still very skillful - at this moment, he was not a newcomer who had just learned acting, but an experienced master actor.
Ling Suisui thought of an item in the system mall, the "acting skills improvement buff".
She hadn't used this item for a long time because the bottlenecks she encountered could not be solved by skills, but she still remembered its effect. No matter what the user wants to perform, he can almost perform it to the best of his ability.
Ling Suisui asked the system in his heart: [Do you also sell props in wholesale in your mall? Are the other party's usage rules, item validity period, and purchase price the same as mine? 】
System: [I do not have permission to view the internal information of other systems. 】
Okay, Ling Suisui has long been accustomed to the fact that the system is useless.
She continued her performance without props, and used the air chopsticks in her hand to pick up an air shrimp and gave it to Yu Jiaxing.
Their eyes met, both feeling a little uncomfortable. Ling Suisui was acting out that awkward concern, and Yu Jiaxing was really confused.
At this moment, Ling Suisui was basically certain that the other party was using the same props.
The "acting enhancement buff" has such usage restrictions. It only gives the user acting skills but does not control the user's brain. If the actor's understanding of the role is limited, the effect presented will definitely be limited.
The roles played by Yu Jiaxing before were not complicated and could be figured out with some effort; when he came for the audition, he subtly hit the "darkness and dampness" that Yan Siling had been looking for - but Bai Fei has more than just this side.
What Yan Siling wants is a mixture of love and hate. She can't help but get closer to the other party due to the blood bond and instinctively desires family affection, but she also hates each other because of the impact of life brought about by the reunion after more than 20 years of separation.
Bai Fei didn't understand Bai Wei's pain. He felt that his sister should love him like a parent and give him affection and care. But he only saw Bai Wei's rejection of him, and his various negative emotions towards Bai Wei were actually mixed with disappointment and complaints that "sister actually doesn't like him."
So, when Ling Suisui took the initiative to show concern during the performance and Yu Jiaxing's performance deviated from Yan Siling's psychological expectations, she wavered in choosing him to play Bai Fei.
Why hasn’t he changed…does he not know how to act, or does he not understand the meaning?
Yan Siling didn't know that Yu Jiaxing had a system of props. Like many of her predecessors, she regarded his skills as a talent because Yu Jiaxing had never received any systematic acting training.
At this moment, Yan Siling lamented that the talented actor has outstanding strengths, but his basic skills are still not solid, his understanding of the role is not deep, and his performance is not stable enough.
She is not the kind of director who is good at training actors. Perhaps it would be better for her to find a stable and balanced male actor who would be more suitable for their crew.
As long as Ling Suisui wanted to, she would not let others see her emotions easily. Yan Siling was struggling in her mind at the moment, with no expression on her face, and Yu Jiaxing could not tell her attitude.
After the audition, the director did not shake his hand excitedly, the actor opposite him did not give him many compliments, and there were no astonished and admiring glances directed at him, which made Yu Jiaxing feel a little uncomfortable.
Because the person opposite her is Ling Suisui, not some actress with only traffic but bad reputation, even if Yu Jiaxing does not admire her, it is difficult for him to feel superior in front of her.
He could only ask tentatively: "Teacher Ling, how did I perform?"
Ling Suisui: "I had a good experience acting with you. You can let me know about the role. It's up to the director to decide."
This official rhetoric obviously did not give Yu Jiaxing an answer, so he continued to ask: "I am still a newcomer in the field of acting. Based on the performance just now, can Teacher Ling give me some advice?"
Ling Suisui paused. What could she say? Wasn't that all cheating just now?
She thought for a moment, then replied, "It's not really advice, it's just sharing some experience. You are indeed very talented, but it seems that you haven't found the right way to use it. If you have the chance, you can study acting systematically, take some acting classes, read more books and watch excellent film and television works. It's never too late to be a good actor, and sharpening the knife makes the work easier."
These are truly heartfelt words to persuade him to walk the right path. As for whether he can listen to them, it depends on himself. Anyway, Ling Suisui would only say this kind of thing once.
After Yu Jiaxing left, Yan Siling was still struggling.
"Do you think he will improve?" Yan Siling asked, "Find an acting teacher to explain the play to him and analyze the role in depth. He should be able to understand it quickly."
Ling Suisui shook her head. The reason she refused was that Yu Jiaxing's performance was unstable, which was also what Yan Siling was most worried about.
But their specific concerns are different - Yan Siling is worried that his level will fluctuate, and talented actors are very dependent on their condition; Ling Suisui is worried about the validity period of his system props, can his cheat code be used all the time?
And... Ling Suisui can't tell Yan Siling for the time being, but she is very worried about the risk of Yu Jiaxing's house collapse.
There are too many temptations in the entertainment industry, and with the help of the system's golden fingers, his success will come very easily. So, can he really keep a clear and stable mind and know what he should and should not do?
After various considerations, Yu Jiaxing's "wait for notification" naturally came to nothing.
However, the show "The Growth of the Actor" in which he participated was broadcast. Because Prince Aoqi was among the contestants, the platform invested a lot of resources in promotion and gave the prince the most complete story line in the feature film. But no one expected that the one who became popular was Yu Jiaxing, who acted with the prince.
The reason is simple: his acting skills are overwhelming. The program will definitely include clips of Yu Jiaxing, because the platform is not a monolithic entity and it is impossible for everyone to serve the prince. Giving him some special treatment will be enough. It is impossible to let the program team members completely ignore their performance and bonuses.
But as for reality shows, those who understand know that strength is not everything, but the "personal charm" displayed in front of the camera is what matters.
But Yu Jiaxing fits the standard of "beautiful, strong and miserable" a little too much. His past experiences are the best material for fan abuse, especially after he was eliminated in the second episode, the fans' pity and desire to protect him reached its peak.
Almost all the people who were bet on by the platform were big loan sharks. Prince Ao was not very popular at that time, so the fans of both sides were fighting back and forth. At this time, a melon owner broke the news that Yu Jiaxing was going to star in Ling Sui's new movie, and play her younger brother, a very important role.
Yu fans immediately felt proud, and the Taizi fans' attack on Yu Jiaxing for being a variety show star would no longer hold water. You are a web drama star, don't get involved with movie actors.
Just when Yu's fans were going crazy and fantasizing about Ling Suisui and Yu Jiaxing walking the red carpet of the three major film festivals, and felt that no one in the domestic entertainment industry could match their brother, the marketing account brought new news.
The role of Bai Fei was chosen to be played by Zhang Haoyu, an actor introduced by Xu Han. Zhang Haoyu is her classmate at the Film Academy and Ling Sui's junior.
Yu Jiaxing? It's not him. Of course this news is true. The crew of Ling Sui's film has secretly started filming, but it has not been officially announced.
Prince fans burst into laughter and said that your family is just a variety show star, and you still have fantasies about Ling Suisui, you are just dreaming!
